Agenda

• Repository reorganization to simply maintenance and published URLs: https://github.com/LD4/entity_metadata_management/pull/79

• Our specification currently also has Split and Merge Activities, and I'd like to propose that we remove them. The reasons being...
  • Partial Splits and Merges will be difficult to make clear using these structures.
  • We already have an established pattern of relying on dereferencing the entity URI and/or using RDF Patch for more complicated semantics.
  • Datasets could represent this data how every they want in the entity description, but if they do this in a machine actionable way they could normalize it in the ActivityStream with
    • useInstead for Deprecate Activities for full Replacement/Merges and full Splits (full Splits would have two or more useInstead statements)
    • seeAlso for Updated Activities where the entity still exists but there is a partial Merge or partial Split.

• Date properties
  • When to use the following in our context:
    • endTime property definition
      • Getty usage - used on each Activity, the value is the same as for the "created" property (see issues with "created" below)
      • LOC usage - not used presently.
    • startTime property definition
      • Getty usage - not used presently.
      • LOC usage - not used presently.
    • published property definition
      • Getty usage? - not used presently.
      • LOC usage - used for each Activity Object like "Add" or "Remove" or "Update."  I.e., not used for each Object of an Activity.   Represents when the Activity Object was 'published.'
    • updated property definition
      • Getty usage - not used presently.
      • LOC usage - used for each Object of an Activity.  Represents the (last) 'update' date of the Object which is the focus of the Activity.
    • deleted property definition
      • Getty usage - not used presently.
      • LOC usage  - not used presently.
    • 'created' - is used by Getty, but understood not to be an AS property; this will be dropped by JSON-LD tooling (ok, because redundant with endTime value)
